{"product_id":"michelle-fuentes-one-piece-penguin-baby","title":"Michelle Fuentes: One Piece Penguin \u0026 Baby","description":"\u003cp\u003eThere’s something instantly comforting about this one-piece copal wood carving by Michelle Fuentes. The smaller penguin leans into the larger bird and gently stretches a wing across its body, creating a gesture that feels both reassuring and affectionate. Instead of just being protected, the young penguin seems to offer comfort, which gives the sculpture a tender and inviting quality.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMichelle’s painting adds even more depth to that feeling. She uses soft ivory, coral, rose, ochre, and deep brown, layering them with fine geometric patterns, tiny feather-like marks, spirals, checkerwork, and detailed lines. The way the smaller penguin’s wing crosses the larger figure creates a strong sense of connection and lets the painted designs of both birds blend together.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis authentic Oaxacan wood carving, made from a single piece of copal wood, is expressive from every angle. Seen from the front, the bond between the two birds stands out. When you turn it around, you discover a new arrangement of warm colors and detailed patterns. It’s a beautifully finished piece of Mexican folk art, both intimate and impressively sophisticated in its carving and painting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOrigin: Oaxaca\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions: 10″ Tall × 9″ Long × 5.5″ Wide.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Sandia Folk","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67674887913721,"sku":"1113366MF","price":1295.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0245\/1069\/3451\/files\/Penguins-Copal-Alebrije-Mexican-Folk-MichelleFts-1277.jpg?v=1794505237","url":"https:\/\/www.sandiafolk.com\/products\/michelle-fuentes-one-piece-penguin-baby","provider":"Sandia Folk","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
